Thank You

I want to take a moment to thank the readers, writers, reposters, rebloggers, sharers, discussers, and even retractors and trolls for spreading these messages of anti-oppression across the world. I have tracked traffic sources from this blog and it's posts and info to Swedish magazines and Industrial performances.

It is wonderful to see people like DJ Pathogen, the folks at idieyoudie, Coilhouse, and others continuing to discuss oppression. I began writing with little hope, and now I have lots.

A new industrial bdsm night even starts here next year. And it has promise of being inclusive and upping the weird kids and freaks again.

Things are looking up. And it's because of everyone having these conversations and because of us all working on ourselves and remembering the love we have for our scenes.

Thank you for another great article. Where else could anyone get that kind of information in such a perfect way of writing? I have a presentation next week, and I am on the look for such information.DispensersDiesel dispensersFlow meters

Rot and Assimilate... or hopefully not

This blog aspires to combat the growing trend of misogyny, racism, and other busted shite in industrial (and goth and related) music and videos. We recommend reading the first entry on this site to understand our reasons for analyzing and criticizing. We also make posi posts about music that is not oppressive and jacked.

We welcome discussion and constructive criticism. After all, even the authors don't agree with each other on everything- though they are both unusually tall and agree on lots.

NOTE ON COMMENTING: We now moderate comments before posting. We post most of them that are not absolutely awful, but this blog has attracted a lot of neo-fascists, racists, misogynists, and homophobes, so we feel they don't deserve any airtime.

About the Authors:

Corvus Strigiform is a rivet-headed, radical, queer transgender butch who sometimes prefers the company of nonhuman animals to that of humans, and uses the word "misogyny" too much. Probably because there is too much of it. Many of their other writings can be found at The Weightless State Between Here and There.

Anarchiteuthis is an overeducated anarchist white lady mired in student debt, bringing the dance, and riding bikes e v e r y w h e r e. She can be found eating all the vegan things, stretching at the barre, lifting weights, and wearing tight black pants. She favors total fucking liberation and a trans-inclusive 21st century version of lesbian separatism.
